Ok so I'm in HK for a lay over for 2 days,

and just around my hotel I spottoed 4 R35 GTR's

2 white, 1 black and 1 gun metal.

the gun metal was parked outside our hotel so got have have a nice close up look.

one of the whites was in a dealer but only say on my way out of time..must try and con some-one into a test drive next time I go through.

only complaint I had was they are so damn quiet. so needs a better note.

You want uncommon hmm? The toyota ex A1 GP car is on parramatta road at the toyota dealer near my uni (sydney) I didn't get a chance to go look at it today though :rofl:

just checked my globe, and I am pretty sure that A1 GP cars are single manufacturer, I think it might be a monster truck you saw :P

P.S. I am sorry if you think I am a smartarse

Nissan are the Holden of Japan.

They source 80% of their product lineup from Korea?

They stubbornly pour all their eggs into the one commodore basket?

They wave the patriotic flag as an excuse to produce mediocre cars?

:D

Jut checked my globe, Hong Kong does not appear in Japan, I think it is in California..

:D

I don't think he was commenting on Nissans in HK, he was more replying to owgasm's post by making a comparison between nissan in Japan being like what holden is in australia... everywhere

I don't know why they bother. Its not like they know how to drive the car the way it was meant to be driven, anyway.

You can't say that..

You haven't met them..

You never know..

Thats just like saying poeple drink Stella Artois because its a more expensive import beer, not because they enjoy the taste.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
